Accelerate Skills Development
Experiential Education
By limiting sailing classes size, our sailing school students have the unique opportunity to more time at the helm. We train you on the yacht on which you are a member, to ensure that you become comfortable with the intimate workings of your particular vessel. Regardless of the size boat you sail, or the level of ASA training you require, we will provide you with “tips and tricks” that go above and beyond the ASA course material.
Captain Chris (recently awarded ASA’s Outstanding Instructor of 2010) and Captain Lisa (SailTime San Francisco’s Owner/Operator) are United States Coast Guard Licensed Captains. They are similar to the pros at the local golf club. Their role is to be available to you and your family for private or semi-private coaching lessons.
As in any sport, we all need to brush up on our skills or improve on them. Our captains are available for coaching on board your fractional sailing yacht. Therefore, much the same as you would a golf instructor; you have your own personal sailing instructor!
